Safety Concepts for an Arm-based Robot Controller SoC

Industrial robots use high-power motors that can pose a risk to people working nearby if they malfunction. In this white paper, Arm Functional Safety Partner EnSilica collaborates with Arm to outline two system-on-chip (SoC) concepts for safety-related robot control applications. It also contains a block-level proposal and analysis, intended for functional safety engineers and architects.
